Beautiful picture ! But you are right, not sure it is St Maarten... and if it is "left to right" as it is said, well it means that St Maarten and Saba switched position...LOL grinning smiley

Kind Regards,
Philippe

Beautiful picture, but there is no way that it can be St.Maarten. If you stand on the highest point on Culebra (650 ft) the horizon is at 35 miles. See: Distance of the Horizon. The distance between St.Maarten and Culebra is about 140 miles... Even if you take into account Pic Paradis at 1400 ft, you won't see further then 60 miles or so. Looks to me St.Thomas or something.
